x < y

x and y are two different numbers. The < means (in this case) that y is smaller than x.

0.5 ≤ X ≤ 3

This is the formula I used (or rather, it's an interval). It basically says that X is 0.5 or bigger and 3 or smaller.

≤ basically means "Greater/Smaller than or Equal to"

so

0.5 ≤ X ≤ 3 is read:

X is Greater than or Equal to 0.5 and Smaller or Equal to 3.

I'm actually not sure if that made sens XD I'm not used to teaching maths in English XD
